"ANALOGyX2 is a virtual analog synthesiser with a variable shape oscillator, including sub and noise generators with independent envelopes, a variable mode ladder filter with dedicated envelope and LFO, a pre-wired mod matrix including PWM, vibrato, tremolo and auto-pan, and last but not least, a selection of built-in effects comprising distortion, chorus, delay, grain pitch shifter and reverb.

Times two. Or as we like to say here at Waverley Instruments - 'X2'.

ANALOGyX2 isn’t just a dual oscillator, or even a “dual voice” affair, it’s two totally independent instruments. Unlike most 'A+B' or 'layered' designs, the only parameters common to both instruments in ANALOGyX2 are the master volume control and pitch bend range. Everything else, including the effects, are totally independent.

On the one hand, this means the ANALOGyX2 sound designer has twice as much to think about. On the other hand, we think this also means there’s twice as much fun to be had, and exponentially more sonic possibilities!

How do you pronounce ANALOGyX2?

Some people pronounce it “anna-loggy-ex-two”. Other people pronounce it 'analogy times two'. To be honest, we don’t mind how you pronounce it. We’re just delighted that you’re talking about ANALOGyX2!"

Bass is a Moog Mother 32 and the drums are a Dave Smith Tempest drum machine. Strymon Bigsky Mx for different reverbs on all the instruments. Recorded into Ableton."

Note VEMIA is Peter Forrest's auction house. He is the author of The A-Z of Analogue Synthesizer Books.

"A great example of one of the absolute classics: a late-model Synthex, checked and serviced ready for this auction. Being a low-volume production item, the Synthex went through a few revisions before Elka mistakenly gave up on it because of lack of commercial success. Originally without MIDI, this was first added as a rather awkward breakout box using a 15-pin computer interface. A later version had the MIDI sockets on a metal plate set in to the right of the computer interface, and the final version had the MIDI IN OUT and THRU fitted to the actual back panel of the synth, and did away with the 15-pin interface.

This is the version in the auction, serial number 1543 - a very late example, and arguably the best version of all. It's in really nice cosmetic condition: as usual, the large wooden end cheeks aren't perfect, but the panel and keys are beautiful. Serviced in early 2025 ready for this auction."

"Casio CZ5000 flagship Phase Distortion polysynth with case and paperwork Ex Paul Davis, the much loved Music Technology lecturer at Ealing College in the 1970s and 1980s who passed away in 2021. He purchased this brand new and used it as his main MIDI synth controller and teaching device through the 1980s and also based his own Music Technology dissertation on it. It has a nice collection of books to go alongside including the original sales folder from Chromatix the keyboard specialists in Ealing. We are trying to find the original reciept as well and it will be included if it turns up. The keyboard had been thoroughly checked out and is in perfect working order apart from slight crackle on the volume and chorus sliders which will probably go away with a bit of usage. It is sad to let this go but we would rather it was used than just sitting behind the sofa gathering dust."

"I finally fixed a lot of issues on the filter board with signal routing, a couple of bad connections, a lost ground, some signal inversions etc. All of these hsve now been addressed and I can concentrate on the software side of the synth to fix and implement features."
